TASCAM DP-03SD 57
11 – SD Card Management
Overview of partitions
As described in “Partitions and songs” on page 30, SD cards
formatted by this unit are divided into partitions. MTR partitions
are for recording data while the FAT partition can be accessed
with a personal computer.
The FAT partition is FAT32 format and can be accessed by a
computer connected to this unit by USB. This FAT partition
is used to save songs and export stereo master tracks to
computers, as well as to allow this unit to import audio files into
songs, for example. For this reason, two steps are necessary to
copy from a MTR partition and a computer. You can also format
an entire card or individual partition as well as change the
divisions between partitions (repartition) as necessary.
CAUTION
Formatting and repartition operations cannot be undone!
NOTE
The FAT (File Allocation Table) format is a disk format that
can be read by a computer.
SD and SDHC card that are at least 512MB in size can be
used.
Formatting cards

CAUTION
This operation erases all the data on the card and cannot

A message warning that all songs will be erased appears.
4 Press the F3 (
YES
) button to format the card.
For example, if you format a 16 GB card, 12 GB are left for
MTR partitions after 4 GB is used for the FAT partition. (Since
1GB is actually 1024 MB, the total size of the partitions does
not always match the card size.)
When formatting finishes the
CARD
menu screen reopens.
After formatting, one song is automatically created in each
MTR partition.
To cancel formatting, press the F4 (
NO
) button.
